BOTANICAL CONSERVATORY

On Sunday afternoon, we went downtown to go to the library, but it was closed, so we ended up at the conservatory. There are three main parts to it, one was tropical, one was a desert and the other had annuals and perrenials.

There were some pretty flowers. I couldn't help but think of my mother-she loved gardenias, and dad bought her many plants over the years.

Some areas were quite colorful.

Here's an interesting container.

The tropical area had a small waterfall.

The desert area had a huge prickly pear in bloom.

It was like being back in Arizona.
